Pinot Gris 2020 Le Fromenteau, Domaine Josmeyer, Alsace

”Fromenteau" er det oprindelige navn for den fremragende Pinot Gris-drue. Denne drue er kendt for sin enorme rigdom og fylde, der i Josmeyer's udgave kombineres med en dejlig friskhed. "Le Fromenteau" smager herligt ung, men holder nemt i op mod 5 - 6 år. Den er perfekt til retter med svampe, rodfrugter og knolde, soja og fisk. Fylden gør den sågar perfekt til retter med kalvekød, kalkun eller fuglevildt.

18,5 Point - Oldenburgs Vinguide (2015): “Allerede næsen fortæller, at den er noget særligt: pikant fersken og ananas holdt sammen af honning, ynde og dristighed – og smagen fortsætter de glade forventninger: den smager mere af tropiske frugter end af druer, men balancen er i orden, og nydelsen er lang og slutter med et smagfuldt kompromis mellem frisk frugtsmag og fint dæmpet druesødme. Mild, blød, fyldig, frisk og forførende. Herlig Pinot Gris, både til mad og uden.”

91 Point - Wine Spectator (2015): "Balanced and creamy, this well-cut white offers flavors of baked white peach and candied grapefruit peel and hints of honeycomb and crushed pine, with a smoky mineral overtone. Drink now through 2025." 

91 Point - Wine Enthusias (2015)t: "Fresh peel of Russet pear appears on the nose with its implication of pleasant bitterness and juicy fruit. The palate is slender and bone dry, showing the purity of the fruit even more. While this is powerful and concentrated, the finish echoes with gentle delicate pears and lemony freshness." 

Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate (2015): "The 2015 Pinot Gris Le Fromenteau opens with a ripe and spicy, slightly lactic/caramelly bouquet of ripe apples. On the palate this is a very dry, piquant, fresh and nicely creamy textured Pinot with a good and aromatic finish. The 2015 was bottled with 13.5% alcohol and two grams of residual sugar. It is an excellent wine that will go well with many kinds of food. Anticipated maturity: 2017 - 2024."
